Hi all,
i see on the wiki it looks like the base tag is "addr:housenumber"

so for whats available in the dataset, along with the way listing the
roadname;is_in and/or addr:city ... Is the listing of the first&last
house number on the left side, as well as first/last on the right.

For the geobase2osm script we excluded this feature, as we couldnt
figure the best way to tag.
Now I found that the data is also available in the canvec set.
So one option is to have it as a way over top of the roadway.

I like the idea of having multiple relations or tags for the same way
seems to work well in this case.

Its only the numbers that need to be rendered.
I don't know how to have the way 'off-set'.  Is there an easy way todo this?

Or maybe include these tags in the roadway block segment.

Thanks,
